Hi,
the following patch (against 2.6.5-rc2) teaches fb to use class_simple.
With this patch udev will automagically create device nodes for each
framebuffer registered. Once all drivers are converted to
framebuffer_{alloc,release} we can switch to our own class.

yeah, it's about time!  Didn't I post this patch a few months ago... :)

Anyway, it looks good, I only have one comment:

notebook:~# tree /sys/class/graphics/
/sys/class/graphics/

"graphics"?  Why that?  Why not "fb"?

It doesn't really matter to me, just curious.

thanks,
